config HW_RANDOM
tristate "Hardware Random Number Generator Core support"
default m
---help---
Hardware Random Number Generator Core infrastructure.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called rng-core. This provides a device
that's usually called /dev/hw_random, and which exposes one
of possibly several hardware random number generators.
These hardware random number generators do not feed directly
into the kernel's random number generator. That is usually
handled by the "rngd" daemon. Documentation/hw_random.txt
has more information.
If unsure, say Y.
config HW_RANDOM_TIMERIOMEM

depends on HW_RANDOM && HAS_IOMEM
---help---
This driver provides kernel-side support for a generic Random
Number Generator used by reading a 'dumb' iomem address that
is to be read no faster than, for example, once a second;
